Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-3130:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: srh.diff

The attached patch srh.diff implements 1+2a, which is not the optimal solution, 
but it reduces the object size to 32 bytes. The patch is only for testing, and 
not ready for commit. Here's the output from "jmap -histo:live" when running 
SmallRecordsTest:

The memory consumed by StoredRecordHeader is reduced by ~2.2 MB.

> Derby's page cache often has a memory footprint that is much larger than 
> pageSize*pageCacheSize. One large contributor to the footprint is the array 
> of StoredPageHeader objects in BasePage. The memory consumed by these objects 
> can be as large as, and sometimes even larger than, the byte arrays 
> containing the raw page data. (See for instance 
> http://www.nabble.com/How-much-derby-need-memory--tf3307655.html.) Reducing 
> the size of the StoredPageHeader objects could therefore reduce Derby's 
> memory footprint significantly, especially if the page cache is large and 
> contains many pages from tables with small records or from indices.
